I found this but obviously the person who tanscribed them isn't sure about a bit of it.
I hope it helps.

__ Mister postman __ (Beatles version)


wait, oh yes wait a minute mister postman

wait, wait mister postman



mister postman look and see

you got a letter in your bag for me

I been waiting such a long time

since I heard from that girl of mine


there must be some word today

from my girlfriend so far away

please mister postman look and see

if there's a letter, a letter for me

I been standing here waiting mister postman

so patiently

for just a card or just a letter

saying she's returning home to me


so many days you passed me by

see the tear standing in my eye

you didn't stop to make me feel better

by leaving me a card or a letter


you gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

you gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

you gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

you gotta check it and see, one more time for me



wait

wait

wait

deliver the letter, the sooner the better

wait
...
